In the subpoena, the producer claims Eisele "closely coordinated" with the pop star to "spread Ms. Sebert's defamatory statements and tarnish Plaintiffs' reputation." The documents accuse Kesha of "encouraging and assisting Mr. Eisele in creating bogus Internet 'petitions' and engaging in other tactics to pressure Sony Music Entertainment to terminate its business with Plaintiffs," including the 2016 #FreeKesha courthouse protests in New York City.

Dr. Luke also claimed that Eisele "has information that is material and necessary to the prosecution of this action" and asks for "the issuance of an open commission to enable [Plaintiffs] to obtain documents and other tangible things from Mr. Eisele and to take his deposition as a non-party witness in this action."
